British Columbian Hunter also enjoying a heated safari!

Kurtis Ramsay from British Columbia, Canada has also escaped the cold winter and coming on an exciting Eastern Cape Safari.

5 February: PH Francios met Kurtis at the airport and sighted in his rifle.

6 February: Kurtis and his first African animal, a red hartebeest shot at a watering hole out of a group of 6 bachelor bulls.

In the afternoon Kurtis shot a nice blesbuck. Just before sunset the guys were looking over a cutline and spotted a lone bushbuck ram. Kurtis made a great shot to end his first hunting day in Africa on a high.

The next morning Kurtis and crew spotted a group of impala feeding out of a river bed, Francois selected the biggest male and Kurtis made a 140 yard shot to bag this beauty!

8 February: Kurtis and Francois set out to our gemsbuck area north of Blaauwkrantz. After a few hours of glassing and covering some ground, they spotted a herd of gemsbuck. After a long stalk Kurtis made a good shot on a gemsbuck.

9 February: Kurtis spent the morning visiting the local cat sanctuary and a trip to the Addo Elephant Park. They managed to squeeze in a short afternoon hunt and Kurtis bagged his second impala ram after an exciting hunt.

10 February: Day 5 and all the attention was on kudu. Temperatures soared to 35 degrees by 9am and not much was moving. They spotted a few bulls but no shooters. Kurtis did manage to bag a nice Bush Duiker before heading back to camp. After a big thunderstorm the team set out to hunt kudu again. After spotting a few kudu they came across a bachelor herd of 14 kudu bulls. Kurtis made a great 260 yrd shot to fulfill his dream of getting a trophy kudu bull!

Kurtis got to experience a South African birthday celebration for lunch, Trinette had friends over for her birthday celebration and Kurtis enjoyed the lunchtime feast!
